Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Argo arrived in November 2022 from our friends at the Rescue Network after he was rescued from a Reservation in South Dakota. He is about 3 to 4 years old and does have a lot of the trademark features of mixed breed dogs from Reservations - "Rezzies", as they are affectionately known in rescue. Like many Rezzies, he could be a mix of cattle dog and German and/or Australian shepherd, just to name a few possible options. He's a handsome and very active dog. He has been vet checked and neutered and his fee is $125. Argo has had some basic training and will require a lot of consistent exercise. This is of the utmost importance in order to keep him well balanced and happy. He is ready for action all the time but gets serious when leashed. He does pretty well on leash walks and loves car rides. He's an affectionate guy, too, who thinks nothing of climbing into a person's lap if he gets the chance. Argo would do best in a home with a large fenced yard. He's NOT a dog for apartment living. He's looking for an ADULT only, single person home as he tends to bond very closely to his person and becomes quite protective. No cats for him. He's incredibly smart and would be a lot of fun to train!

Cotton

Australian Shepherd

Male, 2 yrs 11 mos

Northfield, MN

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Story

Cotton’s time has been beautifully spent. He’s learned to safely navigate a world that he can’t fully see or hear. He’s earned the nickname ‘Fake blind dog’ for his incredible ability to overcome the challenges and obstacles that he was born with, lived through and now has conquered. He moves with the absolute swiftness of a skilled herding dog. He is every bit as confident and agile as his canine counterparts.Beyond his improved physical abilities, Cotton has continued to make strides in his dog to dog relationships. It’s difficult in the canine world for Aussies that can see and hear. Their intense nature, quick movements, desire to herd, and demand for order can often be misunderstood by other dogs. When the ability to quickly read another dog is diminished by lack of vision or hearing or both- it can easily result in reactivity. Cotton has used his time here to learn to read cues his way. He’s learned to trust and play. He’s mastered fun and that should always be a priority. He’s also learning who to avoid, how to exit gracefully and that the humans do have his back. Cotton has embraced the life he’s living. He has worked so hard to be good and do good. He has more than earned his place in this pack, this home, this organization, this community and this world.He still needs a home of his own. This place he lives is wonderful but it’s not his wonderful. It’s a resting spot. A wayside stop. A layover. Cotton needs people that wake up every day happy and excited that he is there. A home that grabs him an extra treat when they are out. A grandma that extra spoils him. A kid that cannot wait to get off that bus to play with him. A bed that is just his. A family.Cotton has been neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on his vaccinations. He has tested negative for heartworm disease.His adoption fee is $350.00 plus sales tax. Please submit an adoption application if you would like to meet this beautiful boy.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Edward is a mini Aussie breeder release born July 2019. Edward is a bit shy and would like another dog to help him with the transition into life in the real world. He is a sweet happy boy, but has never walked on a leash - although he is trying to learn. He would like a home with a fenced yard so he doesn't need to work on leash training at the same time as potty training in a new home. Edward should go to a home that has experience with Aussies so his needs for order and organization will be appreciated. He hopes he can find someone patient and kind to help him learn how to be a happy dog living the good life. All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped. All of this is included in their adoption fee. Fill out an application to adopt at freeborncountyhs.org When transitioning your new pet home please allow for at least 4-6 weeks for your pet to adjust to their new home. They will need this time to decompress, and adjust to a new routine and environment. During that time we will provide check ins and counseling to ensure a successful transition. Please review all basic adoption requirements listed on our website before applying. We take finding the right homes for the animals in our care very seriously. They deserve nothing but the best! Please allow 2-7 days for applications to be processed. If an animal is listed in foster care, these pets are not at our facility, but are in foster care homes. They are still available for adoption, and meet and greets are done with pre-approved applicants only. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email at freeborncohumanesociety@gmail.com, send us a message on Facebook, or call or text 507-377-8501.

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Barbie is a 1.5-year-old mini-Aussie mix with a big personality wrapped in a medium-sized body. Her absolute favorite thing in the world is you—your love, your attention, your lap, and of course your belly rubs. She’s known for her “barrel rolls,” flopping over for scritches any chance she gets. Barbie may start out a little timid when meeting new people, but give her a few minutes and you’ll have a new best friend by your side. She’s a spunky, active girl who loves fetch, tug, zooming around the yard with furry friends, and exploring on walks. She’s fast and has a tall vertical jump so she may be a good fit for agility or other activities that challenge her mind and body. She would be a good fit for a fenced-in backyard, a lead line, or with someone committed to helping her play out all her Aussie energy. Barbie is also a smart cookie. She’s potty trained, sleeps through the night in her kennel, and already knows sit and shake/paw. She comes when called and is working on new tricks. She would love a person or family to help her keep using her mind to learn new things (and she thinks the treats are fun too). Barbie would thrive with a person or family who enjoys time outdoors, playtime, and of course, couch time cuddle breaks. She even likes the snow! She would do well with a tolerant or playful dog friend, though her energy may be a bit much for more mellow pups. She's still learning boundaries when other dogs are done playing but she wants to play more. She has lived with young children but may do best with kids who can respect her need for slow introductions, play safely, and understand her Aussie smarts. Speaking of smarts, her nose knows where the treats are - both dog and human - so she's still learning not to be a food thief. She hasn't gotten into anything but we’ve caught her curiously jumping up on her hind legs to see what’s on the counter/table. As you can see from her pictures, she’s got longer, super soft hair (you’ll have to trust us on the softness for now) but keep in mind if you adopt her, she'll need someone to maintain her hair with regular brushing and grooming. Good news is, she loves getting brushed - its relaxing like the spa! If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion with puppy-dog eyes and a heart full of love, Barbie is ready to be your girl. She can’t wait to find her forever home!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in adopting this lovable animal? Please go to our website www.wagsmn.org and fill out an Adoption Application. Once the application is processed, a Wags representative will contact you, answer any questions you may have, and set up a time/location for a meet and greet!

Henrietta D6145

Australian Shepherd

Female, Adult

Farmington, MN

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Henrietta is a sweet and intelligent dog, waiting for a calm, loving home. As an Aussie mix, Henrietta is a very intelligent dog. She is not particularly high energy, but needs daily mental stimulation on top of exercise. She is learning several tricks and has mastered several puzzle toys. She has also picked up how to ask to go outside. (She may have overused that knowledge when the weather was warm, but she is backing off a bit now that the weather is colder.) When she has had enough exercise and mental work, Henrietta will relax in her crate. It really is her favorite place, and she will default to resting in her crate, even when encouraged to be out. She loves getting attention or just being near you, though she does take some time to be comfortable around new people. Henrietta is adapting well to living in a home. She sometimes gets startled by new sounds, but is quickly becoming accustomed to her surroundings. She is crate-trained and finds her crate to be a safe place. She will retreat to it when she is scared. She is just starting to feel comfortable enough to explore her surroundings. She is very sensitive and eager to please. If she starts exploring something that isn’t for her, calling her or giving a calm redirect is all she needs. She would not do well with firm corrections or loud shouting. Although Henrietta is making great progress in her foster home, there are some things that she will need to be successful in her new family. She is small, and unknown people standing over her scare her. She will come to those who are sitting or crouching on her level. She would do best in a home without small children, and with people who understand that loud, quick movements will make her nervous. She will need a family that can give her time and space to feel safe and get down on her level with her. When Henrietta came to rescue, it was stated that she is an escape artist. At first, she tried backing out of her harness, so she will definitely need a good harness and not just a collar for walks or trips to the yard. She will also do best with a fenced yard or a quiet neighborhood as long walks are probably not in the cards for Henrietta until she feels comfortable in her surroundings. As you earn her trust, she can be given more freedom. She can now be loose in the fenced yard at her foster home, as she will come when called. She really likes being with her person and does not want to be left behind, but first she needs to see you as her person. Henrietta will not even go into the yard now unless her foster mom is in the yard with her. (No watching from the relative shelter of the porch, for this one.) Henrietta does not seem to be comfortable around other dogs. She isn’t aggressive, but she is very intimidated by them. She shows curiosity towards them when crated in the same room or through a gate, but will not come out of the crate and into the room while even one dog is in the same room. Even a play bow from across the room will start her shaking in her crate if the door is open. She does not initiate any interactions when outside together and prefers to keep her distance, but does not start shaking like she does inside. Hopefully this changes as she gains more confidence. She would not do well with a dog that does not give her space at first. Henrietta will be a wonderful addition to the right home. She is so sweet and happy and brave.
